THE COMMERCIAL AND MAMMOTH LIFE MAKING BIG MOVE FORWARD
Notwithstanding the depression which most business has experienced during last few months, that owned and operated by white as well as that of colored. Local race business is still on the go. This fact is borne out by the advertisements carried in the newspapers' statements, issue and announcements of improvements by some of our well known enterprises. The attention of the public has recently been called to the announcement of the Commercial Ladies' and Gents Furnishing store at Sixth and Walnut, the first business of its kind owned and operated by colored people of which Mr. J R. Ray is President, and the statement issued by the Mammoth Life Insurance Co., of which Mr. H. E. Hall is President. For several weeks improvements have gone on at the Commercial. More space was needed for the new lines added to the business, the interior and window display have undergone the most beautiful and artistic improvements, and even from the outside the Commercial is as attractive as any of the stores of the big down town business districts. The Commercial is now offering at the most popular prices the many things needed in the wearing apparel of men and women, young and old.
Under the energetic, able and faithful guidance of the master insurance man, H. E. Hall, the Mammoth is getting back to its old self. The system is again running smoothly, and from the financial statement carried elsewhere in this paper as the exact results of the examination made by the Insurance Department in March of this year shows just how the Mammoth stands today, and what its stockholders and the public may expect from it in the future. It will be observed from the report that the company's surplus is nearly as much as $200,000 capital stock, fully paid, which is an element of strength. 1926 in many ways was the most eventful year in the history of the company. $172,762.51 paid to policy holders during the year.
